Common options include standard E26 (medium) screw bases, smaller E12 (candelabra) bases, and fixtures with non-removable integrated LED modules.
Many pendants offer adjustable hanging heights. Some listings give specific ranges (for example, a minimum of about 20 inches to a maximum near 78 inches), while others use adjustable chains, removable links, or detachable tubes to change the length.
Many pendants are compatible with flat, sloped (angled) and vaulted or slanted ceilings; individual product listings often note whether a fixture is explicitly sloped-ceiling compatible.
Most stairwell pendants require hardwired installation and include mounting hardware and instructions. A few listings note specific tools or partial assembly requirements—check the product details for what's included and any special installation notes.
Options include fully dimmable fixtures (which may require a compatible dimmer), multi-level (3-way) settings like low/medium/high, and simple on/off models. Product pages often indicate whether a dimmer or switch is included or required.
Some fixtures carry recognized safety listings such as UL or ETL. Other product listings explicitly state 'No Certifications'—always check the product specifications to confirm a fixture's certification status.
